Ahead of their debut artist album launch tonight, Delhi-based electronic outfit Jalebee Cartel tells The Guide why fusion music is not their thing, and the designers they are making music for at the ongoing India Fashion Week

Ashvin Mani Sharma (laptops/ synths/ keyboards), Arjun Vagale (laptops/ mixing/ scratching) and Ash Roy (vocals/ percussions) have been DJs for 14 years, before GForce Arjun (bass guitar/tech) joined the trio, and Jalebee Cartel was born in 2004. But the Jalebee sound has changed every 6 months, since then. "Ideas get old, sounds get boring. So, you have to keep reinventing," they say. And their new album, OnePointNothing will take you through this journey. They are not a band that just crept up on listeners. They have experience that's partly responsible for putting them on the world EDM map. Besides performing at the biggest nightclubs, the four-piece group has been part of the line-up at various music festivals, including the Smirnoff Experience Festival (Mumbai) 2005, Lille 3000 (France) 2006 and The Big Chill (Goa) 2007.

How long have you'll been working on ONEPOINTNOTHING?
Ash: We have been producing music for quite a while now, and have over 30 international single releases and various compilations. ONEPOINTNOTHING is a result of this journey. Our sound has evolved, so the album has different sounds from chill to breakbeat to progressive house to techno.

Arjun: We have been producing a lot over the last year and have been keeping aside tracks that we thought would fit into this album.
